Istun University

The Bachelor of Chemical Engineering (English) at Üsküdar University is a rigorous four-year undergraduate program that provides a comprehensive foundation in the core scientific and engineering principles underlying chemical engineering. The program is structured to deliver in-depth knowledge of chemistry, thermodynamics, transport phenomena, fluid mechanics, reaction engineering, as well as mathematical and computational modeling relevant to chemical processes. The curriculum includes theoretical courses, laboratory work, and design projects, ensuring students gain both conceptual understanding and practical skills. Beyond core courses, students engage in electives and must complete a graduation project. The program includes a compulsory foreign language (English) preparation year, which is not counted in the specified education period. A summer internship is typically undertaken after the third academic year, supporting industry-readiness. Career prospects for graduates are broad: they can work in production, planning, marketing, research and development roles across a myriad of sectors including petrochemicals, refineries, pharmaceuticals, plastics, energy, cement, paint, biotechnology, agriculture, food, and textiles, as well as governmental agencies and academia. The department regularly updates its curriculum to align with industry needs and international standards, preparing graduates for both professional engineering practice and further study.
